What's wrong with credit cards/ I prefer 'em. Nobody handing me dirty change with Covid germs on it.


Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.

Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

Why fight it? A credit card costs you nothing to use when you pay it off each month. I get 2% back in cash which amounts to hundreds of dollars a year when I use my Citi credit card and a good credit rating lets you buy anything on time and even gets you lower insurance rates. A card is safer to carry than a bunch of cash. What’s not to like? A debit card takes the money right out of your checking account, so the vendor is paid right away and you don’t end up with a pocket full of change. I’d sure think where you live there up north, you of all people would really like using cards and on-line banking.

Cashless means tracking....of every single thing. That eventually equals supervision.

true enough.

we've all been supervised from the very beginning.

to stop the illegal drug traffic from mehico & china actions are being taken.

americans can't buy illegal drugs and get away with it just because they want to.

what we need is supervision that is pretty painless. i can talk about very painful supervision.

why would people want to break the law if the law was created and placed into effect by the voters?

Becoming more and more prevalent.

I took the family to two places today that would not accept cash.

Top Golf and the movie theatre. They claim it is “more safe.”

I once follow a lady through a checkout line. She had a basket full of junk food wrappers that she presented to the checker. She apparently had eaten her way through the whole store but she was honest enough to keep the wrappers and pay for it all.

As long as there are drugs ( which will be as long as the Govt. is in the drug business...i.e. forever) and inner city " African-Americans".....there will be cash.

i am concerned that my taxes will continue to rise as the gov't continues to attempt to gain control of the out of control society.

are we on the right tract, but far away from the solution or are we on the wrong tract totally?

personnally i just don't think that core-lokt ammo can be exceeded for the price.

First of all, some businesses don't want cash right now under the pretense cash carries germs. That will be the easy way to get rid of cash. They can force you to wear a mask and society didn't balk, so they won't balk at removing cash.

We end up like China, where everything is done via smart phone. You get paid on the app and you pay on the app. All good until AOC and The Squad pass a bill that says no gun sales to you. They lock your account. Or, no ammo sales. How about the fact that you didn't contribute to BLM this month They take it right out. You now longer control your assets.

1 year ago would you have believed the governement would have closed almost all businesses and we'd be running around wearing face coverings? No spectators at sports events, kids doing virtual school? All in a year? Don't be too skeptical abot the negative effects of going cashless.

Your woman wants a divorce and throws a phony domestic violence or child abuse charge on you and bam! New laws you didn't pay attention lock down your assets. You can't even buy gas for your car. As a matter of fact, when you were looking, all new cars come with a kill switch that the .gov can use to stop you. They can track your phone now. Cashless society, you can't access buildings with an app, get food, or a place to stay. It is possible.

It doesn't take much to make our world that of a Sci Fi movie or James Bond, where Big Brother locks down your assets and cancels your identity. However, unlike James Bond, we have no shady characters that will whip up a Black Market ID and fake credit cards that work all because we saved there bacon at one point. ;(
